Abstract

Techniques are described for automatically presenting workflow(s) in an application based at least partly on detected signal(s). A radio-frequency signal may be emitted from a transceiver included in, attached to, or otherwise associated with a payment card. The signal may be received by a transceiver of a user device when the card is in proximity to the device and, in response, an application may launch a workflow including one or more pages of content in the application. The launched workflow may include functionality for activating a payment card, based on a determination that the card is not yet activated. The launched workflow may also include functionality for viewing account information, based on a determination that the card is already activated.
